I have a handler that needs to handle an event differently depending
upon which substack the button calling it is on.

I don't see a direct way of referencing the calling stack.

There is the topStack() function, which would *seem* to necessarily
return the relevant stack, but something makes me nervous about that.

And then there is choosing word 8 of the long name of the object, but
that seems downright reckless . . .

Is tehre a "clean" way to do this?

Parsing the executionContexts may help, but if the button must be manually clicked it may be simpler to use the mouseStack function.
